Japanese tsunami sweeps dock to Oregon beach – video

A 70ft dock that was washed away by the tsunami that struck Japan in March 2011 ends up on a beach in Oregon in the Pacific north-west of the US. State authorities confirmed the dock to be from Japan when a plaque on top of the structure was found and translated. The plaque indicates the dock is from the port of Misawa in Aomori prefecture
